In 2003 he left Jordan to fight in the Caucasus and became a member of the Majilis al-Shura (State Defense Committee) of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria. After the death of Abu Hafs al-Urduni he was passed over in the succession by Muhannad, but became the leader of a brigade of foreign fighters formerly commanded by al-Urduni. In the summer of 2009 he was singled out for a spate of suicide attacks carried out against Russia.
